ABSTRACT

The junction comprises an electrical crossing arranged between the leads of the first pair and the leads of the second pair and is configured to provide an electrical connection between the leads of the first pair and the leads of the second pair. A related electrical device and a related neural network may be also presented.

BACKGROUND

Aspects of the present invention relate generally to electricaljunctions arranged between electrical conductors.

Further aspects relate to electrical devices comprising electricaljunctions and neural networks comprising electrical junctions.

Neural networks are widely used in pattern recognition andclassification, with many potential applications. The parameters (e.g.,‘synaptic weights’) of the neural network may be adaptively trained on aset of patterns during a learning process, following which the neuralnetwork is able to recognize or classify patterns of the same kind.

Neural network applications may include pattern recognition,classification, and identification of fingerprints, faces, voiceprints,similar portions of text, similar strings of genetic code, prediction ofthe behavior of systems etc.

Hardware implementations of neural network architectures require amultitude of interconnects to connect all outputs of neurons from onelayer to the inputs of neurons from the next layer. The number of suchconnections may be very large in preferred systems. Their physicalimplementation is challenging because current hardware fabricationrelies mostly on 2D fabrication techniques. However, with such 2Dfabrication techniques the signal lines cannot be crossed withoutcreating a shortcut. Also multi-layer CMOS implementations with severalmetal layers have limited capabilities to solve this issue.

Accordingly, it is generally desirable to provide other electricaljunctions, in particular electrical junctions that facilitate anintegration of crossings between electrical wires with high density.

SUMMARY

According to a first aspect, the invention is embodied as an electricaljunction comprising a first pair of leads and a second pair of leads.The first pair of leads and the second pair of leads comprise a Weylsemimetal. The junction comprises an electrical crossing arrangedbetween the leads of the first pair and the leads of the second pair andis configured to provide an electrical connection between the leads ofthe first pair and the leads of the second pair.

The leads may be in particular electrical wires. The electricalcrossing, which may also be denoted as electrical node, provides anelectrical connection between the leads of the first pair and the leadsof the second pair. In other words, the electrical crossing isunderstood as the central part of the junction at which the leadsconverge and at which they are electrically connected with each other.

According to embodiments, the Weyl semimetal of the leads of the firstpair is magnetized in a first magnetization direction and the Weylsemimetal of the leads of the second pair is magnetized in a secondmagnetization direction. The second magnetization direction is differentfrom the first magnetization direction.

While the Weyl-semimetal of the first pair of leads and theWeyl-semimetal of the second pair of leads are magnetized in differentmagnetization directions, the electrical crossing is not magnetized.

An overview of the current research on Weyl semimetals is provided byShuang Jia, Su-Yang Xu and M. Zahid Hasan Weyl in the document “Weylsemimetals, Fermi arcs and chiral anomalies”, 1140 NATURE MATERIALS, VOL15, NOVEMBER 2016. According to this document “Weyl semimetals aresemimetals or metals whose quasiparticle excitation is the Weyl fermion,a particle that played a crucial role in quantum field theory, but hasnot been observed as a fundamental particle in vacuum. Weyl fermionshave definite chiralities, either left-handed or right-handed. In a Weylsemimetal, the chirality can be understood as a topologically protectedchiral charge. Weyl nodes of opposite chirality are separated inmomentum space and are connected only through the crystal boundary by anexotic non-closed surface state, the Fermi arcs. Weyl fermions arerobust while carrying currents, giving rise to exceptionally highmobilities. Their spins are locked to their momentum directions, owingto their character of momentum-space magnetic monopole configuration.Because of the chiral anomaly, the presence of parallel electric andmagnetic fields can break the apparent conservation of the chiralcharge, making a Weyl metal, unlike ordinary nonmagnetic metals, moreconductive with an increasing magnetic field.”

Embodiments of the invention may facilitate cost-efficient massfabrication of electrical junctions. Furthermore, electrical junctionsaccording to embodiments of the invention may provide low poweroperation and high integration densities.

According to an embodiment the first pair of leads and the second pairof leads are configured to transport Weyl-fermions. The Weyl-fermionsmay be in particular embodied as electronic excitations.

Hence according to such an embodiment electrical signals that shall betransferred between the two leads of the first pair or between the twoleads of the second pair are represented by Weyl-fermions.

The first magnetization direction is parallel to a direction ofpropagation of the Weyl-fermions in the first pair of leads and thesecond magnetization direction is antiparallel to the direction ofpropagation of the Weyl-fermions in the second pair of leads.

Central part of junction can be a Weyl material or another conductivematerial (metal/semiconductor) which does not lead to scattering of thecarriers.

Hence embodiments of the invention exploit the topologically protectedtransport of Weyl fermions inside the Weyl semimetals in order to reduceor minimize a cross coupling of the electrical signal that shall betransported between the leads of the first pair into the leads of thesecond pair during its transport through the crossing. Likewise,embodiments of the invention exploit the ballistic, but topologicallyprotected transport of Weyl fermions inside the Weyl semimetals in orderto reduce or minimize a cross coupling of the electrical signal thatshall be transported between the leads of the second pair into the leadsof the first pair during its transport through the crossing.

According to embodiments, the first pair of leads is configured totransport Weyl-fermions of a first chirality and the second pair ofleads is configured to transport Weyl-fermions of a second chirality.The first chirality may be in particular a right-handed chirality andthe second chirality may be in particular a left-handed chirality.

The first pair of leads comprises a plurality of first magnetizedelements being configured to apply a directed magnetic field in thefirst magnetization direction on the Weyl-semimetal of the first pair ofleads and the second pair of leads comprises a plurality of magnetizedelements being configured to apply a directed magnetic field in thesecond magnetization direction on the Weyl-semimetal of the second pairof leads.

According to embodiments, the plurality of first magnetized elements andthe plurality of second magnetized elements are arranged adjacent to theWeyl-semimetal of the first pair of leads and adjacent to the Weylsemimetal of the second pair of leads respectively.

This allows for an efficient application of magnetic fields on theWeyl-semimetal. The attachment of the first and the second magnetizedelements to the Weyl-semimetal may be performed with fabrication methodsknown to a skilled person in the art such as e.g. gluing, metaldeposition through a mask, lithography processes, and self-assemblyprocesses.

According to embodiments, the plurality of first magnetized elements areembodied as magnetized layers and/or the plurality of second magnetizedelements are embodied as magnetized layers.

According to embodiments, the plurality of first magnetized elements areembedded in the Weyl semimetal of the first pair of leads and theplurality of second magnetized elements are embedded in the Weylsemimetal of the second pair of leads. This allows for an efficientapplication of magnetic fields on the Weyl-semimetal. SuchWeyl-semimetals with embedded magnetized elements may be fabricated withfabrication methods known to a skilled person in the art such as e.g.doping with magnetic elements during the crystal growth of the Weylsemimetal or placing a magnetic film in proximity.

According to embodiments, the plurality of first magnetized elementsand/or the plurality of second magnetized elements comprise rare earthmagnets.

According to further embodiments, the plurality of first magnetizedelements and/or the plurality of second magnetized elements comprise amaterial selected from the group consisting of Neodymium-iron-boron,manganese aluminum, samarium cobalt and aluminum nickel cobalt.

According to embodiments, the Weyl-semimetal may be in particular TaAs,NbP or TaP. According to other embodiments, the Weyl semimetal may beRPtBi or GdPtBi. These materials turn into a Weyl semimetal by applyinga magnetic field B.

According to other embodiments, the Weyl-semimetal may be a Dirac metal.The Dirac metal may be in particular Cd₂As₃ or Na₃Bi. Such Dirac metalsturn into a Weyl semimetal by the application of a magnetic field B.

According to embodiments, a crossing angle between the leads of thefirst pair and the leads of the second pair is less than 30 degree, inparticular less than 20 degree.

Such embodiments further reduce or minimize the cross coupling of anelectrical signal of one of the pair of leads into the other pair ofleads.

According to embodiments, the crossing is configured to provide adistance, which may also be denoted as transport length, between theleads of the first pair that is sufficiently small to keep the firstchirality of the Weyl-fermions during their transport through thecrossing and to provide a distance (transport length) between the leadsof the second pair that is sufficiently small to keep the secondchirality of the Weyl-fermions during their transport through thecrossing.

While in the leads of the first pair and the leads of the second pairthe respective chirality is maintained or in other words enforced or inother words supported by the corresponding magnetization of the leads,such a maintenance, enforcement or support is missing during thetransport of the Weyl-fermions through the crossing due to an absence ofa corresponding magnetic field in the crossing. But by providing limitedphysical dimensions e.g. ensuring ballistic, scattering-free transport,of the crossing and thereby limiting the distance that the Weyl-fermionshave to travel between the respective leads without magnetizationsupport, the respective chirality of the Weyl-fermions can be keptnevertheless.

According to embodiments, the crossing is configured to provide adistance between the leads of the first pair and the leads of the secondpair between 50 nm and 300 nm.

According to embodiments, the crossing comprises a non-magnetizedWeyl-semimetal.

According to an embodiment of another aspect of the invention, anelectrical device comprising a plurality of junctions according to thefirst aspect is provided. This is in particular advantageous forelectrical devices with a large number of electrical connections andcorresponding crossings.

According to an embodiment of another aspect of the invention, a neuralnetwork is provided. The neural network comprises a plurality ofneurons, a plurality of connections between the neurons and a pluralityof junctions according to first aspect. The plurality of junctions isconfigured to provide a plurality of crossings between the pluralitiesof connections.
